After marrying an officer, she was spoiled by the group

Chapter 207 Hanging out with Sister-in-law

Lu Beichen had told her that the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination had already spread internally, but no official notice had been issued yet, so it would not be abrupt for her to give them a heads-up at this moment.

"Then you should prepare yourself. I have inside information that the college entrance examination will be resumed next year, so you should study hard during this period.

The smile on Kong Ci's face froze... and then she was surprised: "Lingling, are you serious? Will the college entrance examination really be resumed next year?"

She was a bit skeptical about the surprise, but it wasn't until she got Fu Ling's affirmative answer that she was ecstatic: "Great, I can take the college entrance examination! I want to go to university. This is my dream."

Fu Ling chuckled: "Okay, then I'll prepare a set of high school textbooks for you later, so you can review them carefully."

"Second sister-in-law! Can I take the college entrance exam after finishing high school?" Lu Wanning was also very happy.

"Of course, this time the college entrance examination will not be cancelled, so Wan Ning, if you want to go to college, study hard." This just gave her a sense of urgency.

"Well, sister-in-law, I will definitely study hard! I also want to go to college."

You must be kidding. Even someone as outstanding as my second sister-in-law has to take the college entrance examination. If someone like her doesn't work harder, how can she get along with my second sister-in-law?

She had already decided that she would follow her second sister-in-law in the future. If she was a hopeless case, how could she continue to follow others?

"Okay, come on, Wanning. Second sister-in-law believes you can do it."

These words were very helpful to her. She felt like she had been given a shot of chicken blood and was very motivated to work hard.

Around six o'clock in the evening, Fu Ling and others also came out of the room.

Those who came to eat also arrived one after another.

Since there were a lot of people, we were divided into two tables.

It wasn't a holiday, so there wasn't any alcohol, but the men at the table were toasting with tea...

While eating, Lu Nianci habitually moved closer to Kong Ci.

The two of them have long cooperated with each other tacitly. They also know Nian Nian's taste and will pick up her favorite dishes for her. Their eyes are always on Lu Nianci.

Lu Nianci's eyes curved as she ate, and she was obviously very happy.

This was a completely different reaction from when she was having dinner with her biological mother. Everyone could see that Nian Nian really liked her stepmother and did not reject her approach just because she had a bad mother.

Fu Ling couldn't help but smile as he looked at her. With Kong Ci around, the lack of maternal love that Lu Nianci lacked could be made up.

It made her think of her past life.

In her previous life, Fu Ling lacked the bond of family affection, but it was made up for in this life. In fact, she still envied Lu Nianci. Although her biological mother was not good to her, other people treated her like a treasure.

What Fu Ling hated most in his life was the kind of scum who abused children and abandoned their own flesh and blood.

That's why when he discovered that there was something wrong with Zhang Qiuya, he was so eager to deal with her...

"Xiao Fu, you almost scared me to death this time. Don't do that again." Sheng Shouxiang said as Fu Ling and Lu Beichen were seeing him off. This was his last warning.

"Uncle Sheng, don't worry. If I hadn't known he was going on such a dangerous mission, I wouldn't have insisted on following him. I was also worried that he would get hurt. With me here, at least I can save him if he gets hurt."

Sheng Shouxiang sighed and then nodded: "Well, you are all capable people, so I won't say anything more. It's better to be cautious in everything."

"Okay, Uncle Sheng, take care."

After everyone left, only the family was left at home, and Fu Ling took out the gifts.

Mother Lu and Mother Fu both wore jade bracelets and gold necklaces, the styles were different, but each one was exquisite and extraordinary, showing their wealth.

Lu Wanning's bracelet was a jade bracelet embellished with four rubies, which made her look particularly youthful and energetic.

What was given to Nian Nian was a jade pendant tied with a red string.

When Fu Ling handed a gold bracelet to Kong Ci, she was slightly stunned: "I have one too?"

Her first reaction was to refuse.

Just now she was just a bystander and didn't feel jealous. After all, they were not a family.

As a result, Fu Ling even prepared her share.

It would be a lie to say that I wasn't touched. Her parents treated her like a commodity, putting a price tag on it. My sister was so ungrateful.

But I felt unprecedented love and warmth from someone I had only met twice.

"We're almost a family, so of course you have a share. Or... don't you want to marry my eldest brother?"

"I...I didn't..." When she said no, her whole face turned as red as a monkey's butt.

She rubbed her hands nervously, but Mother Lu smiled and smoothed things over: "Xiaoci, please accept Lingling's kindness. I'll pick a date and arrange your marriage. By the way, your parents..."

Before Lu's mother could finish, Kong Ci waved her hands hurriedly: "No need to inform my parents, I can make the decision myself." Her eyes became extremely dim.

Now everyone could see that something was amiss. Fu Ling said to Kong Ci, "Kong Ci, since we're all going to be a family, there's no need to hide your family's affairs. Tell everyone about it. That way, even if they come looking for us, no one will be caught off guard."

Kong Ci thought for a moment before lowering her head and saying, "Actually, I ran away secretly this time. My parents wanted to marry me off to a second-generation official regardless of my wishes in order to get the expensive betrothal gift. But I didn't like that man. I rejected the marriage directly in front of my parents, but they didn't agree and locked me up.

One time, my mother took me out to meet the man, and I ran away halfway. I only told my sister where I was going because I was afraid she would worry about me, but she betrayed me. When I got off the boat, I was caught by the man...

That's the thing. If Ling Ling hadn't helped me on the plane, I might have fallen into hell now."

Lu Beifeng blamed himself at this moment: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have said so much... If you really left, where would you go?"

He was now feeling a little scared. He knew Kong Ci's character. She would never agree to marry someone she didn't like even if she died.

"I just don't want you to compromise because of this matter. Feelings should be pure. What I want is your sincere acceptance instead of passive acceptance..."

The Kong Ci in front of me was so stubborn that it made people feel distressed.

Mother Lu sat down beside her, holding her hands and comforting her: "Good child, it's better not to have parents like this. This will be your home from now on. I will love you like my own daughter. I will discuss your marriage with his father later. No matter how much the second brother gives you as a betrothal gift, you will not get less."

Hearing what Mother Lu said, her tears began to fall.

Mother Lu patted her back gently, soothing her in a gentle tone: "Be good, we are a family from now on. If they dare to bully you, I will give them a good beating."

She sobbed and thanked him, "Thank you, auntie."

Seeing the woman he had loved for many years crying in front of him, Lu Beifeng's heart was gripped.
